The ultimate home theater and digital music speaker for medium and large rooms.
Boston BT Series set new performance standards for speakers designed for use in A/V cabinetry or the front theater stage. Coupled with appropriate amplification, BT systems are capable of delivering massive output typically associated with commercial movie theater or concert hall performances. From explosive music and pounding effects to the most artistic texturing and softest whispers, BT’s extraordinary power handling and sensitivity allow extreme audio levels while preserving the subtlest details. All without the enormous speaker size and mass normally required for true big theater sound. Sound so detailed and dynamic, it’s utterly stunning. Clear and uncolored across the entire audio spectrum. This is the award-winning, true-to-the original performance known as the Boston Sound.
Every aspect of the BT2 has been thoroughly thought out. The width of the BT2 is a standard component size of 171/2" allowing easy installation into A/V cabinetry. Die-cast “finger pulls” positioned at the front of the speaker enclosure provide easy installation in tight cabinet spaces, supplied neoprene pads prevent scratching and allow for smooth slide-in positioning of the speakers. All cable input terminals and switches are recessed at the rear of the speaker.
The BT2’s midrange/tweeter baffle can rotate 360 degrees for horizontal or vertical placement in cabinetry—maintaining the proper sonic vertical alignment of the mid-range and tweeter. The baffle may also be angled for more accurate imaging when the speaker is far off-axis. Made from ridged die-cast aluminum, the baffle’s thermal mass provides tremendous heat dissipation for the midrange and tweeter improving power handling and reliability.
The BT2 uses Boston’s 1-inch VR® high-output aluminum-dome tweeter, and 4½-inch neodymium midrange with 1½”-inch voice coil. Two 8-inch woofers using 1 ½-inch voice coils, neodymium magnets and cast aluminum baskets provide powerful bass. This driver compliment delivers an astounding 400 watts power handling with 93dB sensitivity.
The BT2 will live behind a perforated video screen or cabinet grille cloth in most installations. It features a Screen Compensation Switch to accommodate installation in this environment. A Flush Mount Switch can compensate for response anomalies caused by placement issues found in some theater stages and A/V cabinets. It also comes with full-coverage metal grilles for bookshelf or speaker stand placement.

Buying a Boston Acoustics Factory Refurbished product is a great way to get "as-new" products at a considerable savings. Every product has been thoroughly tested, repaired (if necessary), cleaned and otherwise renewed to original condition. Next it’s repackaged in a new box with all original accessories included. When you consider that a factory-renewed Boston Acoustics product undergoes such close scrutiny for defects and workmanship, you might actually be buying something that is in many ways better than new. And for your piece of mind and protection, your purchase is covered by a full 1 year parts and labor warranty (90 days on electronics) valid at any authorized Boston Acoustics repair center (you can look-up locations online here or call 201-762-2100)
Boston Acoustics, like all electronics manufactures, receives products returned for various reasons. In 2011 consumers returned 17 billion dollars in electronics globally, of which less than 5% were found to be defective! Once a product has been opened it must be resold as refurbished and can’t be resold as new again. The history and reason why a product was returned is not provided to us, thus we can’t provide any additional details regarding its past. All products are processed by Boston Acoustics certified technicians, where they are fully tested, repaired (only if necessary), and retested again to ensure the highest quality control. Each unit must pass a complete battery of test before it can be titled a "Boston Acoustics Factory Refurbished" product.
All units are Cosmetically in Mint Condition (graded a 9 or higher on a scale of 1-10) unless otherwise stated. Very minor signs of wear (light surface scuffs or minor scratches) may be present, although most units show little or no signs of any usage. We DO NOT sell products that are cosmetically damaged (cracked displays, broken knobs, heavy scratches, or physically abused) unless noted in the description. Unfortunately, we can’t provide actual photos of each unit or pick the best one for anyone, as they are all randomly chosen from our factory sealed boxes.
